SSH Launcher

Your .ssh/config can be like this: #GroupStart MB Host MB-Dev HostName example.dev-host.com User root Port 54572 Host MB-158 HostName 192.168.1.158 User root Port 54752 Host MB-Mail HostName mail.example.com User root Port 53752 Host MB-SPB-Master HostName 192.168.2.1 User root Port 56832 Host MB-SPB-Slave HostName 192.168.2.2 User root Port 56832 Host MB-MSK-Master HostName 192.168.3.1 User root Port 56832 Host MB-MSK-Slave HostName 192.168.3.2 User root Port 56832 #GroupEnd Host ex-dev-billing HostName dev-billing.example.com User developer Host magnolu HostName remote.example.net User magnolu Port 222 Host yourproject HostName dev.yourproject.com User root Port 53750

I was wondering if grouping is possible. Just looked into source code and yes its possible: Use a line '#GroupStart name' to start a group and a line '#GroupEnd' to define the end of the group.

Like other applications, openssh allows you to specify other files to include. My config begins with: `Include config.d/*/*`, which 'sources' additional host-specific configuration files from ~/.ssh/config/d/*/*/ I do this because it makes it easier to manage, maintain, and update my config with 20+ hosts Currently, this applet does not replicate the Include directive, resulting in the majority of my hosts not being displayed. An update including this functionality would be greatly appreciated. In the event that my explanation is unclear, here is an example file structure: ~/.ssh └── config.d ├── org1 │ ├── server1 │ └── server2 ├── org2 │ ├── server3 │ └── server4 └── personal ├── atlas ├── ganymede ├── hyperion ├── mercury └── saturn

With large server list, the list expands outside the screen. Applets is useless and does not provide anything interesting.

It does not work for me (latest ArchLinux) because gnome-terminal does not accept a -T parameter (title?). After I remove it from the call, it works.

One thing I found is that if there are a lot of hosts, it gets cut off with no way to scroll when it goes past the screen... this might be difficult to fix and I'm not sure the best route... Maybe a "More >>" menu item, or arrows scrolling up and down, but either way it seems like maybe a difficult issue especially since monitors could be any size

Hi, I am using this applet on Linux Mint 19.1, I have configured the config file but when I try to connect to a raspberry, the ssh connection start but drop almost instantly. When I connect manually from the terminal, it is working fine. I am using ssh keys and the following entry in the config file. (I have already restarted ssh) All my devices have been added to my hosts file... Host RPI 01 Hostname RPI01 Port 22 User bill IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa

Works really well on Mint 19. Thank you!

The applet does not work in Fedora 28 with gnome 3.28 / cinnamon 3.8.1

Is there any way of making sessions to open in existing terminal window?

You should note that the SSH Launcher applet is case sensitive (where the ssh client is not). You should start your entries with a capital 'Host'. Like So: Host development-server hostname: dev.mydomain.tld *more options* Host production-server hostname: www.mydomain.tld etc...

Hi Where can I see an example of a config file?
